MULES AND MUSTANGS.
THEIR WORK AS PACK ANIMALS IN
EARLY CALIFORNIA DAYS.
A Chapter of "reminiscences of the Days
Of the Gold Mining Craze on the Pa
Beef


NANTUCKET, Mass, Aug. My first job
In the California mines was that Of beef
packer to the miners in the Tuolumne.
That was eight years after the "rush Of
40" Times were still good. Laborers'
wages were 81 per day. A carpenter got

called himself carpenter.
| parked my beef, already cut in steaks
and roasting pieces, in panniers slung over
mustangs hack. 1t was pretty tough beef
some Of it, think, cut from bulls who had
fought iii the Mexican arenas ever since the
invasion oil Cortes. We never bothered in
cutting up quarter of beef about porter
house steaks or "sirloins" We sliced it off
from the neck to the rump you would
Slice potato for frying Our purchasers
got the sirloin and porterhouse all the same,
somewhere in their meat. Most of the miners
were away at their work when | left the
meat at their cabins. | left it in the
covered game safes, which were suspended by
a cord from the tree, usually near or shadow
ing the mansion. But in the summer you
could safely leave steak hanging ont of
doors for days and it would not decay Tie
suns heat and perfectly dry air soon covered
it with a Kind of film, skin like parchment
So il wouli get dryer and dryer, until the
whole piece was "jerked," or sun cured
Only the yellow jackets, species of wasp,
would when the meat was fresh, bore holes
in it, cut the meat out in little bits with some
manner Of sharp apparatus they have, roll
this meat w in balls twice as big as buckshot
and in this shape fly away with it.
One day while on the dusty trail my mus
tang ran away with full panner load. He
was active with his heels, and every time he
kicked up a red steak flew into the air, glow
inc in the sunshine, and thereafter falling

season.. | ran after the animal, crying

found them and, when the load became too
heavy to carry, depositmg them in little
piles When the mustang had kicked out all
the meat he stopped and seemed satisfied /
went back with him, gathered up my heaps
OF dust covered steaks, loaded up again, went
down the long half mile descent
to the river and washed them in
its current, muddy with the myriad
tons Of red mud sluced in it by thousands of
up country miners twenty, thirty, forty
miles away. Then, as usual, l left the meat,
grit, mud and all, for the "boys" to get away
with rs best they might. My employer had
no use for my services about a week after.

tween them and he be thus "shucked' of it.
He objected to crossing perfectly sound
bridge over Niagara creek The whole COM
pany were obliged to precipitate themselves
upon him in the proportion of two men TO a
leg and carry him over bodily Among his
supporters was Judge Cavis on his way TO
open the United States district court in
Mono county, who was congratulated after
the passage of the creek on bringing such
successful power of attorney" to bear on
that yaler mule After getting him over,
his driver, taking a club, belabored him in
sections. proceeding to which he seemed so
accustomed and received, apparently, with
so lutte emotion that the man at last threw
his stick away. exclaiming in discouraged
tones, "uell just stand and take it and take
it all day"
Two days afterward he rolled down the
steepest hillside he could find, going over and
over pack and all, like a big dry goods
box. At tine bottom he lay quiet, easy
and uninjured till we went down and I'M
strapped him. We were half the afternoon
getting the load up to the trail again, for to
pack and lead him up to it was impossible.
We were another half day Strengthening out
our bent and banged tin coffee pots and other
camp cooking utensils which formed part of
his load, and which he had in his descent
rolled, pressed and twisted into uncouth and
inconvenient FORMS That he planned all this
in his mind aud so allowed himself to tumble
down | am more than half disposed to be-
lieve, for mule has a mind of his own, and
can scheme and plan and remember injuries,
since it is an old saying among mule
drivers that one of these beasts will wait
seven years to get good chance to kick
man he's down on" And one more strange
and peculiar thing about the mule-no mat
ter how well you feed or how rich the food
you give him, when in camp he's unpacked
at night, he will first lay down and roll and
grll,lt in the luxury and ease of relief from
his heavy load and the next thing he does is
to MUNICH and chew and swallow mouthfuls
of the dead, dry and rotten little twigs, dead
leaves, bark or such trash us he finds lying
about The old hands say he must have this
stuff, that it serves some useful purpose i'll bis
digestive economy known only to himself,
and that if he can't get it he'll fall away in
flesh and even die PRENTICE MILFORD.

THE LATE URIEL CROKER.
Tho Publisher of the First Book Printed
from Stereotype Plates in America.

SPECIAL Correspondence
Boston, Aug .--Uriel Croker, probably
the Oldest publisher in America whose name
was long familiar to every reader of religious
and educational literature. died at CobasSeJt,
Mass, recently, aged 81 years. The firm of
Crocher & Brewster was in existence sixty
nine years counting from the original firm
i'll which Mr., Armstrong was the prncipaD,
and was only dissolved by the death of the
senior partner. 1t is doubted if any parallel
case can be found in America.
Uriel Croker was native of Marblehead,
and when he was Is years old, in 1911, his
father apprentced him to Samuel Arm
strong, printer, at so Cornhill street, Boston.
Two months later Osmya Brewster entered
the same office; and on Nov /, 1878, Mr.
Armstrong took the two young men into
partnership In 1925 he retired and for sixty
two years Crocller & Brewster have re-
NAMED partners, their premises having been
the same for fifty eight years and their firm
the only book selling and publishing estab-
lishment in Boston that weathered the finan-
cial storms of 1887 and 1851 They estab-
lished branch firm in New York, but dis
posed of it to Jonathan Leavitt and Daniel
A. Appleton, which was the origin of the

SAN FRANoIooo, June 2.-Tne price
of foreign coal is steadily advancing
Best steam coal from New Castle, New
South Wales, is selling at $3.50 per ton
in cargo lots, deliverable seventy days
hence, an advance of 81 per ton over
former figures. Cardiff and Liverpool
coal is IS, an advance which is ow ing to
short tonnage. Reports of the shortage
of the wheat crop is in part responsible
for the disengaged tonnage in port which
is 81, 900 tons against p, 600 tons one year
ago. While 2l2, 1000 tons is on the way
-tenths of which is available for
wheat, it is claimed that ship owners
realizing that the wheat crop is liable to
fall into the hands of manipulators, are
disinclined to send any more ships into
this port, and in this contingency still
higher prices for steamer Goals is pre-
dicted. As far as the quantity is con-
cerned the Northern collieries can pro.
duce all that is needed here, but the
steamship companies must have the very
best article obtainable, and therefore
continue to use the fereign coal.

business about $3.50 O'Clock this morning
and retired to his room upstairs. A

apartment with the saloon, and Davis
was just falling into the arms of Nor
pheus when he was aroused by crash
in the saloon below. He arose aud went
to the small elevator and could plainly
hear sounds of some one ransacking the
place below. He dressed hastily, got a
revolver, went to the front of the saloon
where he noticed the door had been
pried open. As Davis did not know
how many burglars were on the inside,
and as there was no one about to help
him, he fired the pistol in hopes Of at
lracting the police, at the same time
telling those inside that il they Ventured
to escape he would shoot them. Special
policeman May answered the summons,
but none of the regular force, and he
and Davis entered the saloon. They
ordered the burglars to throw up their
hands. When searched there was found
on the burglar among other things
big knife. He had opened the saloon
with crowbar, had rumaged all the
drawers, etc., and was about ready to
leave when caught. The thief was tax
